How this service works
PDF to text: extract the text of any public PDF, page by page. The text of a public PDF, page by page: pass ?url= of a whitepaper, filing, invoice or paper and get every page's text with page markers, the page count and the file size. Parsed with pdf.js; up to 15 MB and 200 pages. A file that is not a PDF, will not open, or has no text layer (scanned images) is refused before any charge.
Output
Returns the extracted text of each page in the PDF, organized with page markers (e.g. '--- Page 1 ---'), the total number of pages, and the file size. Supports PDFs up to 15 MB and 200 pages. Files that are not PDFs, are inaccessible, or are scanned image-only PDFs (no text layer) are rejected before any charge is incurred.
Example use cases
Reading a research paper
“Extract all the text from this academic paper PDF so I can read it: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2301.00001.pdf”
Parsing an SEC financial filing
“Pull out the full text from this SEC 10-K filing PDF page by page so I can analyze its contents: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/12345/filing.pdf”
Reading an invoice PDF
“I need the text from this invoice PDF — can you extract everything from https://vendor.com/invoices/inv-2024-009.pdf so I can see the line items?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://apexfaucet.xyz/api/x402/pdf-text?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to extract machine-readable text from a publicly accessible PDF URL quickly and cheaply ($0.003 per call). It is ideal for whitepapers, research papers, SEC filings, invoices, and other text-based PDFs. It parses using pdf.js and returns structured page-by-page output. Prefer alternatives if you need OCR for scanned/image PDFs, or if the PDF is not publicly accessible via HTTPS URL.
